You can call on the 180 day mark from your first day and make all your reservations for up to 10 days if you can give a WDW resort confirmation number.

i thought it was 180 days PLUS 10 days additional if you were at the disney resort.
im leaving feb 19th and i see that i can book feb 18th. on the disney dining website now.

Nope, it sounds similar, but it's not.

180+10 means that you can book up to 10 days of dining at 180 days before your check-in date.

Normally, without a resort reservation, you may only book up to 180 days before your dining date.

It sounds confusing, but it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

Don't worry. I got confused with this too..then really pissed when I thought the website wasn't working when I tried to book at 190.

I thought they same way..180+10=190! Incorrect apparently. Those without reservations would have to call for each day of their trip because they'd be stuck at the 180s.

So those people who are staying onsite checking in on Feb 1 could make their reservations for Feb 1-10, that's the plus 10. If said person was offsite and wanted to book at 180 days, they'd only be able to make one reservation at a time, in order, because they'd have to wait til it was 180 days out each day of their stay. So 180 days before Feb 1, then 180 days before Feb 2, 180 before Feb 3, etc etc.
